The annual midseason exhibition of the world’s best basketball players has arrived in Los Angeles as the city will host the 2026 NBA All-Star Game on Sunday.

For the first time ever, the All-Star Game will have a USA vs. The World concept. This could be a one-year thing—as it happens to coincide with the Winter Olympics taking place—or it could be the future of the NBA All-Star Game.
